Fernando Torres caused quite the stir when he decided to leave Liverpool to join rivals Chelsea in January 2011.

The Spaniard had grown frustrated with the lack of trophy-winning opportunities at Anfield, thinking that he would have a better chance of sealing silverware at Stamford Bridge.

He was right as he won the Champions League, Europa League and FA Cup with the Blues before leaving for AC Milan in 2015.

There were many broken hearts on Merseyside when Torres ended his Liverpool career, but the hate has since subsided.

The 34-year-old striker, who now plays for Japanese club Sagan Tosu, won back a lot of fans when he took part in Steven Gerrard's testimonial.

Now, it seems that the tide has completely turned as he has backed Liverpool to win the Premier League title.

While speaking to Sky Sports News, Torres tipped the Reds ahead of his other former club Chelsea.

On Reddit, some Liverpool fans posted their reactions to the clip.
